3 Lotus Flowers represents having a positive outlook in life and having a vision through creativity to solve problems in life. And the five-pointed flowers represents new horizons through pushing through boundaries, with the colour white of innocence and purity.

“The Pink Lotus Flower"
The Lotus Flower is known to hold the highest vibration of any other flower, the petals are used in medicine and cooking and are very healthy for you.
In this painting the Lotus aligns with the sun which enables it to open and close it flower each day. And at the very core of the flower holds the pod seed which can go for long periods without any water and still grow many years later, the seed will never die....
"Purple Copperwing Butterfly with white Blackthorn Blossoming Flower"
"Purple Copperwing" or another name which is the "Bathurst Copperwing Butterfly" is a very rare and beautiful butterfly that exists in very specific conditions, surviving above sea level attitudes of 900m and above.
These Butterflies are an Endangered Species and are under threat. They belong to the Bathurst & Lithgow regions of the Central west of NSW.
It feeds off its natural food source of Blackthorn and is mainly active during the months from August to November and seen during the full light of the day from the sun.
Butterfly always reminds us of the delicate nature of life and how at any given moment we can be going through life's ups or downs. In order to bring something that contains the purity of nature alive, it 1st must be nurtured. The light of the sun comes up in the morning and goes down in the evening, but when the light shines upon us and all the conditions are right, you will know when to step outside again.
